This VS Code extension provides syntax highlighting support and rich language features for MODFLOW 6. It enhances the readability and editing experience for MF6 files by leveraging specifications directly from MF6 DFN files.
Features
Syntax highlighting
Go-to-definition for linked files:
Ctrl + click
Go To Definition keybinding (default: F12)
Hover for keyword description
Others:
Block folding
Snippet (MF6 block)
Comment-toggling
Auto-closing quotes
Surrounding quotes
Usage
The extension activates based on the file's extension. If not detected, use MF6 Syntax: Set language to MF6. Alternatively, use the Change Language Mode command to set the language manually.
To avoid performance issues when opening huge files, a maximum file size that can be opened through the go-to-definition feature is set with the setting: mf6Syntax.maxFileSizeMB (default 50MB).
VS Code's minimap can display enlarged section headers (MF6 block names), which may appear cluttered. To simplify the view, disable this feature by setting editor.minimap.showRegionSectionHeaders to false.
